Build the chat interface and user account portal for Workmind’s AI-powered automation platform.

About Workmind

Workmind builds AI-powered automation for American home-service franchises. Founded in July 2025 by experienced AI professionals, we’re focused on robust, reliable systems that turn operational friction into revenue. We don’t fine-tune models; our value is systems design, orchestration, and evaluation that hold up under real-world abuse.

Role: Frontend Developer (Contractor)

You’ll own the design and implementation of Workmind’s chat interface and user account portal, bringing the product’s human-AI collaboration to life. You’ll build fast, reliable, progressive web apps that integrate real-time communication and run local inference using llama.cpp/WASM.

This is a hands-on role for a self-directed engineer who values performance, simplicity, and control over frameworks.

What you’ll do

  • Design and implement the text and voice chat interface for Workmind agents
  • Build and maintain the user account and configuration portal
  • Integrate local speech-to-text (STT) via llama.cpp/WASM for on-device transcription
  • Send transcriptions to backend APIs and render real-time responses over SSE
  • Develop the web app as a Progressive Web App (PWA) with offline and mobile support
  • Instrument analytics using PostHog and Google Analytics (GA4)
  • Maintain Lighthouse ≥90 mobile performance and strong accessibility compliance
  • Write and maintain unit and integration tests with 80% coverage target
  • Document design and implementation decisions clearly in Markdown

Our stack

  • Frontend: TypeScript, React (SPA or SSR depending on developer preference)
  • Realtime: SSE (and optionally WebSocket)
  • Inference: llama.cpp / Whisper model compiled to WASM
  • Testing: Jest/Vitest, Playwright for E2E
  • Analytics: PostHog + GA4
  • CI/CD: Cloud Build (Google Cloud)

Must-haves

  • 4+ years of professional web development experience
  • Strong command of TypeScript, React, and modern browser APIs
  • Experience building Progressive Web Apps
  • Strong UX instincts for chat or messaging interfaces
  • Ability to deliver clean, minimal, dependency-light codebases
  • Comfort with testing (unit/integration/E2E) and CI pipelines
  • Demonstrated ability to work independently in a remote environment

Nice-to-haves

  • Experience with WebAssembly or in-browser ML inference
  • Familiarity with speech recognition or real-time audio features
  • Experience integrating analytics and telemetry tools
  • Knowledge of Google Identity or Firebase Auth

Location & hours

Remote. Preference for Southeast Asia (Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam). Applicants elsewhere are welcome but must work ASEAN hours with at least 4 hours daily overlap.

Compensation & contract

  • Contract role; you handle your own taxes/insurance per local law
  • Base USD $2,000–$3,000/month (DOE)
  • Initial 90-day contract with potential extension
  • Fully remote; flexible hours with core overlap
